What ever happened to Peter's work on a Maine Birds book? Peter died
nearly three years ago. I thought his book was basically complete and
just needed some formatting of the front and back matter and then to be
published, or maybe not. Is it still viable or is it now a dead issue?
It gets outdated more quickly than we would like, still I am sure there
would be much of value in it. Thanks much.

Hey Stan,

This was the latest news from the Nuttall Ornithological Club:

Work on The Birds of Maine by Vickery, et al., has proceeded according to schedule and the manuscript has been copy-edited. This publication should be out sometime in the coming year and will be co-published with Princeton University Press.

Good birding,

tom
